Classic site converted to Elements - Christ 2R Culture

To encourage others who are in the conversion project from RapidWeaver to Elements, I finished my conversion and shuttered my old site Saturday night. I began the conversion work on November 30, 2025.

It is www.christ2Rculture.com.

Special thanks to @WeaverPixel. I used his Maximillian site as my template. It was very helpful.

Features of the site are:

  • Over 900 CMS entries across 3 blogs! That is a lot of work for Markdown files!
  • Filtering of the largest blog by passing a tag through a URL. Christ 2R Culture - Sermons By Series
  • The site references 24 Gigs of data through 3,400 links (Yes, I had to do them by hand!)
  • The password-protected pages work well, as well as the new Pro Gallery component!

Special thanks to @dan @ben, and the rest of the team for their excellent work on Elements!

Great looking site and a lot of great work to convert….

Kurt very nice site.

Just one personal comment I saw button in right side as a menu button, I did not open it as I was on computer. I did narrow the screen to see what it looked like on smaller device and menu hamburger appeared, noticed that the button was now on bottom of menu. So out of pure curiosity I opened it, to find its your subscription link.

Personally I would never have opened this if I was not looking at the site as an Elements example, so maybe you have underrated the donation link or if it was me I’d make it more prominent to get donations.

Good Luck!

Thanks for your kind words and helpful comments. You picked up on my intentionality of underrating the donation link.

I vacillated on even including it. Income is not the purpose of the site. It is telling people about Jesus.

I ended up deciding to include the option, but I didn’t want it to be prominent.

Thanks for letting me know, mine is an e-commerce site so I put “buy” everywhere! :rofl::rofl::rofl: I have a slight different bias on underrating the message! Good Luck!

In that case… You can be the first to donate on my site! :rofl: :rofl:

All good! :slightly_smiling_face:

Cheek of it!:rofl::rofl: Youd better check and see if your link works!:rofl:

It worked great! You are my first contributor! Thank you!

OK cn i have a refund now that you know it works - Just to check all sides of payment process :rofl::rofl::rofl: In sll seriousness this is a JOKE i do NOT want a refund! Take Care!
